Wow this anthology is only .99 cents! So getting it.
I don’t know how daring I am but I totally got the book 😀
Slightly unrelated, but I LOVE the name of that company. ^_^
RIGHT?! It’s so cool! I’ll let you know next time they announce an anthology! You should definitely contribute! 😀
That’d be great. I’ve always wanted to publish some short stories. 😀
